The Span­ish Super­copa, which matches the win­ner of La Liga against the win­ner of the Copa del Rey in a home and home series, is head­ing to FSC for the first time.

The matchup pits Real Madrid against Valen­cia on Aug. 17 and 24 at 4 p.m. EDT. The first leg is at Valen­cia, with the return at the Bernabeu.

This is a nice pickup for FSC, as they really could stand to expand beyond Eng­land. The Serie A matches last sea­son were a nice addi­tion, and while France isn’t the best in Europe for club matches, it’s always nice to have more.

Con­sid­er­ing the bat­tle between Dish Net­work and GolTV, which owns the rights to La Liga in the U.S., this pro­vides a nice lit­tle bonus for those 13 mil­lion households.

Now, if only we could get games in HD
